Project Description

AISI 4130 Alloy Steel

AISI 4130 is a premium low-alloy CrMo steel renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, superior weldability, and excellent machinability. The precise additions of Chromium and Molybdenum significantly enhance the material's hardenability and high-temperature strength. As a trusted manufacturer supplying the world’s top 10 oilfield service companies, ShunFu Metal specializes in engineering this grade specifically for demanding oil, gas, and mining environments. Backed by our API Q1 and ISO 9001 certifications, and with extensive experience exporting to over 50 countries, we possess the proven metallurgical expertise and certified production capabilities to deliver AISI 4130 materials that consistently meet the most critical industry requirements.
